Music We Should All Get Into

OK so the idea is, we all name 3 bands/artists that we think that not ALL OF US has heard before, but that we would highly recommend...

I will start us off...

1. Modest Mouse, crazy alternative rock but can be chilled out too!
2. The Shins, the best acoustic/soft rock/alternative band I've ever heard.
3. Imogen Heap, kinda weird but really cool solo singer.

Never heard them before and just downloaded some stuff of limewire absolute class.
 
My Bloody Valentine - Kevin Shields fecking weirdo :wenger:
Sigur Ros - Obviously alot of people will know em but for anyone who hast listended......
John Martyn - Another trippy cnut but brilliant at folk

Add to that:

Joanna Newsom

more to follow..............................
 
Devin Townsend... he's simply worth of your attention.

The guy is a genius. Every of his solo album has different sound... from relaxing to speed metal extremum.

Steve Vai was his guitar teacher and he has also outstanding vocal.

Magazine: Real Life was probably the best album of it's era yet most people under 30 won't have listened to it. Their second album was very good as well.

Tom Waits: If you haven't given him a serious listen then you are really missing out. One of the greatest songwriters and performers of our era. Start with Rain Dogs and see how you go.

The The: Again largely overlooked by people who weren't around at the time. His second album (or third now that Burning Blue Soul has had a full release), Infected is his best known work, but for my money Soul Mining is his masterpiece. Dark, soulful, with a slow burning social conscience and mesmeric electronic beats. Strongly reminiscent of England in the early 80's before greed was good. And don't miss the Jools Holland piano solo.

Swordfish Trombone and Closing Time are great albums as well.
 
You don't need any more music other than Layla by Clapton!!
 
Blackwire - Split up now but produced a quality album I can send it if anyone want's it. It's probably quite hard to get hold of now.

Supergrass - Now I realise everyone has probably heard of them but I think they are criminally underrated. Everyone just thinks they did Alright and not much else!

Vincent Vincent and the Villians - New album has just come out which isn't half as good as the demo's but still worth a listen.

I've only got one Frusciante album I'd better stock up on some more.
